how much c++ / java 15 years experience take ? (Linux/windows server/client )

I hire on odesk regularly ( over 4100 hrs ). I would not hire based on the English structure used in your question. I don't think you would be able to communicate successfully. So personally not much.

So improve the English or find the subset of jobs that do not require English. (apologies for English being such a pain to learn)

i have dyslexia its very hard for me to write in English but hi i craft great applications (: and i do understand you , and if we where talking in Skype i guess you could understand me very well also . 1200 hours in odesk and 5 star's reputations can prove it

Great. Glad to hear it.

Most communication I have with developers is in the form of comments and email - written communication.

High-end developers are doing more than creating their own code - they are commenting on ideas and design documents.

Your dyslexia is a barrier to communicating and persuading. How are you going to minimize its impact on your life?

Maybe you can try using a font to help - https://www.google.com/search?q=dyslexia+fonts

but in the end - it is your problem to solve.
